32. For your servant became a pledge of safety for the boy to my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame before my father all my life.’
33. Now therefore, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a servant to my lord, and let the boy go back with his brothers.
34. For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I fear to see the evil that would find my father.”
